Description
Brochure Description - 'The Barn' on Croft Lane is a spectacular, L shaped barn conversion that was originally constructed circa 1600 and then rebuilt to a higher specification in 2003, with modern fixtures and fittings in all the right places. These include underfloor heating beneath the stripped Oak flooring, that runs throughout the majority of the home, and timber double glazing which combine with the original architectural features to create a quite beautiful home. This fabulous property is situated on one of the most exclusive roads in the city, in the heart of Whirlow and on the edge of the picturesque Limb Valley that can be explored from the top of Whirlow Lane. The property falls into catchment for some of the best schooling in the city and is also conveniently placed, only five miles or so away, from the main city hospitals and universities. Boasting four double bedrooms and a versatile study area on the large landing there are also three luxurious bathrooms making the property perfect for a broad range of buyer, including the family market. The two wood burning stoves and a programmable Aga in the bespoke kitchen give the property a warm and welcoming feel in the winter months and help with the surprisingly efficient EPC rating, while the sunny, private south westerly facing gardens come into their own in the warmer months of the year. For car enthusiasts the electric gates and an abundance of off road parking will appeal and there is also an integrated garage that features an electrically operated door for added security. Part of the appeal of this lovely, stone built home is the fact that you will be buying what is on first impression a characterful period home that has attractive features such as the exposed framework of the roof, beamed ceilings and generous proportions but you will also have the peace of mind that there is modern building regs from the rebuild in 2003 and will therefore avoid costly renovation work that would have been required if it was in its original form. Whirlow as an area has long been regarded as one of the cities most desirable locations, the almost rural feel that you get from living on the edge of the beautiful countryside but also having the convenience of bus services and local amenities close by is not to be underestimated and it is easy to see why the area continues to be as well regarded and popular as always.
ELR PREMIUM - IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:
ELR is marketing this property with the benefit of ‘ELR Premium’.
ELR has introduced ELR Premium to help reduce fall through rates and speed up, what can often be, an unnecessary sales process.
Purchasers will benefit from the pre sale buyers pack, which we have created with our legal partners, Banner Jones Solicitors, to give buyers as much information as possible before they agree to purchase.
The pack includes:
Property Information Questionnaire (PIQ - a summary of the TA6)
TA10 (Fittings and Contents)
Official Copy of the Register
Title Plan
Local Search*
Water and Drainage Search*
Coal and Mining Search*
Environmental Search*
(ELR have ordered the local, drainage, coal and environmental searches; we will add these to the pack as they become available)
ELR Premium allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful buyer as part of their legal due diligence.
Additionally, and on behalf of the seller, ELR requests that the successful buyer enters into a Reservation Agreement and pays the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).
Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as ‘Sold Subject To Contract’ (SSTC).
The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.
The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and ELR advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.
If you have any questions about the process or want to know how selling or buying with ELR Premium could benefit you, please speak to a member of the ELR team.
